Canada's CHÜZO Unchain Menacing New Video "Brutalator"
Canadian aggro-metal CHÜZO is unshackling their menacing new video for the track "Brutalator" from their latest EP "M.T.M.D (Maximum Threshold, Minimum Decay)" released this past October and produced with Kevin Jardine (Slaves On Dope, Uplift Recording Studio).
The song is about the "Brutalor", a character that comes to each town or village to reclaim social justice to anyone who has been mistreated by greedy and evil parts of humanity.
Guitarist Cristian S explains further:
"The Brutalator" is the opening track of our latest EP, "M.T.M.D." (Maximum Threshold, Minimum Decay). This song was a collaboration between Carlos G., Mischa M., and I, Cristian S., the leader and founder of CHÜZO, after spending about a year experimenting with its structure. The arrangement was developed by Carlos and me, but it lacked lyrics for quite some time because I struggled to find the right phrasing and inspiration. After rehearsing the song for a while and having a profound discussion with Mischa about anti-heroes and other tracks in Metal, such as "The Wizard" by Black Sabbath or "Edgecrusher" by Fear Factory, Mischa crafted the lyrics that would become the final version for "Brutalator." Her lyrics tell the story of an anti-hero betrayed by life and loved ones, discarded and mistreated—a constant victim of societal injustices. Bound by honor and revenge, he trains himself and returns to fulfill the wishes of the unfairly treated, the exploited, and the oppressed of an unjust society, seeking vengeance and enforcing his version of justice against those who instigate injustices against the weak and abused. Her lyrics perfectly complement the song structure, giving birth to our best track. She also created the intro, a beautiful piano arrangement that sets the tone for the song.
